Soooo, some people may have heard, but Marvel made this variant I did SUPER RARE. So, I’ve taken my ONE COPY and given it to a non-profit organization to auction off. It’s to help a Syrian refugee family relocate to Canada and it would be great if you spread the news.
The book is signed by me (witnessed) and is currently being graded by CGC. The auction closes soon, so if you’re interested, bid now!
GO HERE FOR THE AUCTION AND PLEASE SPREAD THE NEWS!
I am also auctioning off a copy of the limited edition Vol. 1 HC of SEX CRIMINALS with a full sketch inside!
Love,

On collaboration and kissing
The kissing I do relies on collaboration and most especially my collaborators. I kiss specifically the people I am kissing -– and oftentimes touch their butts or faces too.
Without David Aja I could not kiss David Aja.
Without Annie Wu, I could not have kissed Annie Wu when I was not kissing David Aja. Without Matt Hollingsworth, I would not kiss expat-Croat brewmeisters. Without Chris, I could not kiss Chris when Brad Meltzer is not kissing Chris. Without Steve Wacker I would still be a virgin.
Without Chom Zduggitty there is no kissing for team SEX CRIMINALS. I literally would not be able to kiss Chip if Chip was not there to kiss.
It is a high class problem at all that anyone wants to write critically about the kissing that happens with the people I kiss and also make comics with but mostly kiss and I understand that, but I find it fatuous at best and disingenuous at worst when any kissing we do gets referred to as “mine” or really ‘Chip Zdarsky.’ These kissings result from the work of “us.” One may as well write a restaurant review without referring to the actual taste of a kiss, or a piece of music solely by its duration relative to kissing, say, a nice lady or like a really cool dog.
To not refer to the artists I am lucky enough to kiss and co-create these books and kisses with reflects a morally (or at least intellectually) criminal neglect and ignorance of the process from which kissing happens –- thus casting any other commentary suspect while robbing attention and praise from those that deserve it.
Love the kissing or hate the kissing there is a team required to kiss, sometimes moving heaven and earth and touching faces and butts in ways you’ll never know, and any commentary should reflect that partnership.
I cannot and do not speak for others but as far as the kisses I kiss, as far as “my” kisses go –- well, there is no ‘my’ kisses. They’re all “ours” –- legally, financially, morally, ethically, and most of all, sensually.
so fuck you stan how dare you
Must-read if you work in kissing journalism.

“ The only thing that makes me happier than comics, is watching the old guard of nerd culture lose their shit. Captain Marvel can’t be a woman. Captain America can’t be black. Human Torch can’t be black. Spider-Man can’t be mixed race. Thor can’t be a woman. Iceman can’t be gay. Too bad. It’s happening. It’s going to be awesome. Hell, I hope there’s a new title that takes place in Earth 6969 where all sexual orientations, races, and genders are reversed, where a black, gay, female Cyclops leads the X-Men. Seriously, superheroes are supposed to be about inspiring you to be better and accepting people. We’re supposed to be amazed that the mild-mannered newspaper writer is in fact our greatest savior. That nerdy kid you picked on is actually the bravest and kindest soul who feels that even though you were an ass to him, it’s his responsibility to help you. Society can believe that a dude can turn into ice, ride around on a slide, fight a living island, live in skyscraper sized spaceship, and teach alien children, but the second you have him question his sexuality you call bullshit.
Superheroes are for everyone. God forbid they actually try to reflect the world we live in and let one of the most underrepresented demographics have an interesting character to relate to.
